Sports betting provider mybet heads into Bundesliga 1 with SpVgg Greuther
Fürth
Kiel/Fürth, May 7, 2012 - The sports betting provider mybet will be
sponsoring the football team Greuther Fürth from the 2012/2013 season.
Fürth had already sealed promotion to the top tier of the Bundesliga with
four matches to go.
Mathias Dahms, Management Board spokesman of mybet parent JAXX SE,
remarked: 'We congratulate Trainer Mike Büskens and his team on what must
be the most notable achievement in the club's history. And we look forward
to plenty of exciting top-flight matches next season for the team with the
cloverleaf emblem.'
The sponsorship package for SpVgg includes TV-relevant advertising areas on
the stadium's perimeter bands as well as extensive promotional
opportunities. Mathias Dahms added: 'In mybet, we have an excellent brand
that we aim to continue bolstering through a measured approach to
sponsorship and well-paced branding measures. Our partnership with the
cloverleaf gives us the opportunity of a presence in the Bundesliga through
an especially likeable club. With its attractive football and a young,
motivated group of players, the team is bound to make its mark on the first
division, too.'
mybet has been involved in the sports betting market since 2003 and is
today one of Europe's leading providers, with over half a million Internet
customers and more than 500 betting shops. In the increasingly liberalised
German market, which is now being opened up to private sports betting
providers, mybet is aiming to be comprehensively involved in sport.
Alongside its new association with SpVgg Greuther Fürth, mybet is already
premium partner of Fortuna Düsseldorf, sponsor of the Germany national
handball team and supporter of 'Republik Fussball', an initiative of FC St
Pauli for amateur and recreational players. Through its licensing in
Germany, mybet will moreover be making a major contribution to mass sport
through the tax revenues and licence fees it generates for the state.
